1 They Say & Do Not Matthew 23:1-3

2 Problem Stated Jesus exposed hypocrisy of Pharisees in context In some cases, the things taught by them were inherently wrong In other cases, their teaching was right, but their actions did not match the teaching Like situation of Jeremiah 7:30-31   Called temple by name of God, but set idols up there   Right name -- Wrong practice   Which I commanded not, neither came it into my mind Same thing is true in principle today

3 “They Say & Do Not” Problem Seen In Denominationalism

4 They Say, “Must Accept Bible As Truth Of God” & Do Not The Bible claims to be absolute truth from God   Psa. 119:128   2 Pet. 1:20-21   2 Tim. 3:16-17 Call to accept Bible as truth must be put into practice regarding everything the Bible teaches Yet, many in denomination say right words, but…   Write creeds & manuals that contradict Bible teaching   Call preacher, “Rev.” or “Father” (Ps. 111:9; Mt. 23:9)   Compromise with changing morals (Rom. 1:18-32; etc.)   Change worship, work & organization of church

5 They Say, “Call on the Name of the Lord” & Do Not Denominations speak of “calling on name of the Lord” as if it is merely vocal appeal to Jesus Bible teaches more to calling on name of Lord:   Acts 4:7-12“Name” = Authority of Christ (Mt. 28:18f)   Acts 26:9fActed against name = Opposing authority   Acts 22:16Called upon name by obeying (Acts 2:38)   Col. 3:17Whatever done in word or deed, do all… Many preach messages unauthorized by the Lord:   Salvation by faith only (Jas. 2:24, 26; Rom. 6:16-18)   Total hereditary depravity - inherited sin (Ezek. 18:20)   Once saved, always saved (2 Pet. 2:20-22; Heb. 6:4-6)

6 They Say, “Be Baptized” & Do Not Bible pattern for baptism authorized by God:   Is immersion - baptidzo (Rom. 6:4; Acts 8:38f; Jn. 3:23)   Response to believing in Christ (Acts 8:35-36; 8:12-13)   For salvation (Mk. 16:16; 1 Pet. 3:21)   For remission of sins (Acts 2:38; 22:16)   Beginning point of new life (Rom. 6:3-11; Jn. 3:5)   Puts one into Christ (Gal. 3:27; Col. 2:10-12)   Into body of Christ, church (1 Cor. 12:13; Acts2:41,47)   If unauthorized baptism, must baptize right (Acts 19:2f) Contrast denominational baptism with above...

7 Bible Baptism -vs- Denom. Baptism Bible Pattern Immersion Response of Believers For Salvation For Remission of Sins Beginning of New Life Puts into Christ Into Body of Christ, Church Authorized Baptism Required Denominational Pattern Sprinkling, pouring… Infants on faith of parents Not for salvation (after it) Sins remitted before it Buried after already alive In Christ & later baptized Into denomination chosen Will accept any baptism
